Raiden Sakamoto

Name: Bunshin no Jutsu - Clone Technique
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: E (Basic)
Requirements: None
Description: Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique which every ninja learns at the Ninja Academy. The Bunshin technique creates a copy of the ninja without substance. The copy resembles the ninja in every way. This clone can function as a distraction or as means to confuse one's opponent. As soon the Bunshin gets attacked or comes into contact with an opponent, it will disperse.

Name: Henge no Jutsu - Transformation Technique
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: E (Basic)
Requirements: None
Description: Henge no Jutsu is a ninjutsu technique which every ninja learns at the Ninja Academy. Henge allows the ninja to transform themselves into any person or object. This allows the ninja to move with stealth or to trick their opponents. However, it does not grant one the properties of said objects or skills of that person, meaning turning into a weapon will not allow you to cut an opponent and turning into a dog will not give you a great sense of smell.
This technique can also be used in conjunction with someone, who may a person, a pet or a summoning creature, in which case it is called Konbi Henge (Combination Transformation). However, its principles remain the same.

Name: Kawarimi no Jutsu - Body Substitution Technique
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: E (Basic)
Requirements: None
Description: Kawarimi no Jutsu is a basic Ninjutsu technique. When in danger the ninja will quickly substitute themself with another nearby object. This can be a block of wood or even another person. This allows the ninja to quickly flee and hide while the original object takes the brunt of their opponents attack. Naturally, it won't work with another person unless their skill gap is enormous, and the object to replace oneself with must be close in size and weight to the ninja themselves. This technique must be set up a little ahead when fighting skilled opponents, otherwise, you may end up getting struck because you wouldn't have enough time to use it.

Name: Kinobori no Waza - Act of Tree Climbing
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: C (Basic)
Requirements: None
Description: A skill that every self-respecting shinobi must have. It is based on concentrating chakra to the soles of one's feet and using it to stick to objects, which would allow one to walk on vertical surfaces and even upside down. This is also often used as chakra control training, since the soles of the feet are said to be the hardest place to control your chakra.

Name: Suimen Hokou no Waza - Act of Water Surface Walking
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B (Basic)
Requirements: Kinobori
Description: A more advanced technique than Kinobori, it allows one to walk on water or other similar liquid or amorphous objects. It is used in a similar fashion to its predecessor, but the shinobi must also release a constant flow of chakra into the water to keep themselves on its surface. It is often used as advanced chakra control training, since it takes the same basic concept as tree climbing technique and kicks it up a notch.

Name: Basic Sealing Technique
Rank: D
Type: Fuuinjutsu
Requirement: None
Description: This technique is a standard ninja skill which allows a ninja to summon an assortment of items or weapons that have been stored using Fuuinjutsu, typically they are stored within scrolls. When needed, the owner will activate the seals releasing their item or weapon of choice. Scrolls can also be used as ammunition for other weapons. The items themselves are unaffected by time.

Name: Doton: Gansetsukon- Earth Release: Rock Staff Technique
Rank: C
Type: Ninjutsu

He was born in the hospital of Iwa, to two parents of unknown origin. He never knew who they were, as they disappeared shortly after his birth. He grew up in an orphanage just outside the village, with a bunch of other children, but unlike them, he was never put up for adoption, in fact, whenever someone would ask about him, the matron of the orphanage would whisper something in the adult's ear and then they would look down at him with disdain. Raiden didn't find out why for many years. He was hid in the cellar whenever a group of prospective parents would come over, so he doesn't "scare them away."

One time a lady came in and there was no one around but him. So she walked over to him and asked what his name was. He looked down at the ground and whispered, "Raiden Sakamoto.” The woman instantly thought that he was the most adorable thing she had ever seen and asked what he thought about getting adopted, at which point he told her about how the matron acts toward people who express an interest in him and she told him that she didn’t care and that she would do her best and make him a part of her family. But it was not to be, for while they were talking a man burst thru the front door of the orphanage and saw him and her together. Furious at the sight of someone he walked up to them and grabbed the woman by the arm and dragged her away from him. She yelled at him to let her go, to which he replied that he was saving her life. She said that he was doing no such thing and that if anything he was endangering her. He then told her that Raiden contained the Four-tailed Monkey, and her eyes widened in disbelief. But from where Raiden was standing, he saw it as another betrayal, and lost it. The creature sealed inside of him gained control of his tiny 5-year old body and unleashed it’s fury upon the two.

When he came to, he saw the remains of the woman he had been playing with and talking to and cried. The matron of the orphanage rushed out and saw the destruction unleashed by the demon and had him kicked out. When he got up off the ground he started running. He ran and ran and then ran some more until he collapsed from exhaustion. He was found by an Leaf Ninja returning from a recon mission. When he saw the boy lying in the middle of the road with no villages or inns for miles in either direction, he couldn’t help but take pity on the poor boy. He picked him up and ran the rest of the way back to his village. When he arrived he rushed Raiden to the hospital where he had him admitted to the emergency room posthaste. Five minutes after he and the doctors entered, A doctor came out and asked him if he was sure the boy was injured when he brought him in.

Puzzled he proceeded to tell him how he found him on the side of the road and that he was covered in blood. Apparently the matron had hit a few times before throwing him out. But apparently there were no wounds on his body. The only thing he was suffering from was malnutrition and fatigue. The Ninja was surprised to say the least. He rushed into the emergency room and looked the boy up and down, and started pointing where he had seen the wounds. After that they all came to the conclusion(not at all aided by the seal mark on his naval) that he was a jinchuuriki. After that they all started looking at the boy differently. The doctors of course were only interested in the medical aspects of his jinchuuriki powers, while the ninja looked at him with pity. He had heard that jinchuuriki were often beaten and ostracized by nearly everyone they came into contact with if they knew of their prisoner. After that he made his way to the Hokage’s office and asked for an appointment to see said woman. Fortune shined that day because at that very moment the Hokage exited her office at that exact moment to see go to a meeting. She saw the ninja and asked what he needed to speak to her about that was so urgent. When he told him about Raiden and his tenant, she immediately canceled his meeting and dragged the ninja into his office. After a heated discussion, it was agreed upon that he would look after the boy and teach him the ways of the ninja, that way he would feel indebted to the village for taking him in and he would feel obligated to stay.

When Raiden woke up he found himself lying in a bed wearing an over-sized shirt. A couple minutes later the ninja walked in to check up on him and found him huddling in a corner, his hands covering his face protectively. Moved beyond words he walked over to the young boy and pulled him into his arms. Raiden stiffened at first thinking that the man was going to hit him but after a few minutes of just holding he relaxed into the hug and at the end had his arms wrapped as far around the man as his five-year old limbs could reach. That day he met a ninja by the name of Minoru Kakushi, the first man to actually care.

Over the next five years he became very close to Minoru. He was enrolled into the ninja academy and even made a few friends. But one day disaster struck after one of the more mean-spirited students decided to play a prank on him. The Monkey took the opportunity to take control during his time of weakness and scared everyone near him. He then chased after the prankster but was knocked unconscious by a teacher who heard screaming and saw Raiden chasing after another student with an animalistic appearance, and proceeded to knock him out. He succeeded, but because of the volatile chakra surrounding his body the teacher received a 2nd-degree burn.

That was the day he met his tenant. And it did not leave him unscathed. The Monkey shrieked at him, telling him he should hurt those who hurt him, and that if he didn't want to get hurt again he should give his body to him. Raiden shaking told him that while he didn't like getting hurt(who does) he does not want to hurt those around him for that reason alone, unless they really really deserve it. The Monkey then replied that he would make the offer again when he had cleared his head. Raiden said it was but the Monkey simply laughed and he was brought back to reality.

After that day he lost all of his friends and no one wanted to sit next to him during class. After the Tsuchikage explained to the parents of the students about what was sealed inside of him they told their children to stay as far away from him as possible. Despite the Hokage’s best efforts at explaining that he only attacked because he felt threatened the parents still warned their kids away from him.

Raiden was heartbroken. He had lost the only friends he had ever had and now it was just like Konoha, except that this time he had Minoru to care for him even if everyone else left. He was however still able to make it thru the rest of his time at the academy thanks to Minoru's support.

Two years later Minoru came home and told him that he had to go away on a mission that would take several days. Raiden pleaded with him not to go, but he just shook his head, ruffled Raiden’s hair, and left with a wave saying he would be back in time for his graduation. The day before graduation, a man came into the class and called Raiden out into the hall and told him that Minoru died during his mission. At which point he shut himself off from society completely. The Hokage made it a point to visit him in his time off to try and cheer him up, but he was too far gone. He was put on a genin team but after a while of him refusing to cooperate with his teammates and his teammates refusing to try and work with him after their parents told them not to for so many years, he was removed from the team.

He never got over the death of Minoru and felt completely alone. He swore to never break the trust that Minoru had in him. If he ever opened up his heart again and let people in, he would protect all of his precious people. But until then, he would do his best to survive.
